Disclaimer: I don't own any of these characters at all.so don't sue me.

Okies. Umm.for those of you who read the original first chapter, sorry about the lack of paragraphs. I'm not sure if I've succeeded in fixing it up, there might be two of the same chapters floating around somewhere. I have basically no idea where this is leading up to, just going with the flow. If you have any ideas, feel free to email me. Also, in the last episode of season 4, Cole had "inherited" some new powers. Just pretend that never happened.



"Piper!" Phoebe lunged down the stairs. "Paige!" She ran into the kitchen to be confronted by Darryl.

"Um.hey Darryl." She looked over at Piper and said, "We need to talk."

"Oh, okay. In a minute. Darryl needs our help." Piper said.

"With what? Demons? Warlocks? Abominable snowmen?" Paige asked walking into the room.

"Actually, I'm not sure. There have been a number of murders. We have no leads. All we know is that the victims were all found in lonely areas, scorch marks on their chests." Darryl said.

"How can we help?" Phoebe asked impatiently.

"Is this a bad time?" Darryl asked, slightly wavered by Phoebe's mood.

"Oh, don't mind her. She's having a bad day." Paige stated.

"And it just got worse. WE NEED TO TALK." Phoebe said firmly.

"Okay, I'll go. Just tell me if you come across anything weird." Darryl said.

"Will do." Piper said, before showing Darryl out of the house.

"Okay, what is it?" She said upon returning to the kitchen.

"Cole." Phoebe said.

"Phoebe, we've been through this. Just go to councell-" Paige started, before Phoebe cut her off.

"No, that's not it. I just had a premonition. About Cole. He chucked an energy ball at someone.a man." Phoebe said. "So he killed a demon. One less for us to rid the world of." Paige said.

"It's not that. I don't even know if it was a demon. Cole isn't supposed to have any powers. When we vanquished the source we vanquished everything - including his powers. Cole didn't have his powers before he used the hollow." Phoebe said. Piper frowned.

"So what? The source isn't gone?" Piper asked.

"He has to be. We vanquished him. The only other option is that Cole somehow got his powers back. Therefore he's still evil." Phoebe said.

"So what? Now he's trying to get back together with you so he can try and kill you again?" Paige asked. "That little."

"I don't know. Maybe. I have to go." Phoebe said.

"Where are you going? It might not be safe." Piper asked.

"Oh, just to meet the man that might be trying to kill me. The marriage counselling session is today." Phoebe said, before leaving the manor.



"Ms Halliwell?" The receptionist asked. Phoebe nodded. "Dr Brighton and Mr Turner are waiting for you." Phoebe inhaled deeply, before opening the door. She concealed a smile as she observed Cole lying across the couch, and the so-not-typical psychiatrist. Cole sat up and moved to one end of the couch, while the (extremely young, not to mention good looking) psychiatrist indicated to the couch.

"So glad you could join us." Dr Brighton said.

"Well, glad you feel that way. Because I certainly don't." Phoebe said under her breath while she sat down.

"I'm sorry. What did you say?" The psychiatrist asked.

"Oh, just that I'm glad to be here too..Dr Brighton." Phoebe said, hoping that the look that she plastered on her face was a pleasant one.

"Please, call me Andrew." The doctor stated. Silence filled the room as he shuffled through his papers.

"Okay. Now, Ms Halliwell.." Andrew started before Cole cut him off.

"Well, technically she's Mrs Turner." He said, vaguely smiling when Phoebe shot him a glance.

"Alright. Mrs Turner." Andrew started again before Phoebe cut him off.

"I never agreed to changing my name. So technically, I'm still Ms Halliwell." Phoebe stated, throwing another angry glance at Cole.

"Okay. Ms Halliwell." He was once again cut off by Cole.

"At least give her a "Mrs", after all, she's still married." Cole said.

"Not by my choice!" Phoebe threw back at him. Andrew looked at the pair, scribbled something down on a piece of paper before looking up again.

"Mrs Halliwell?" He asked, waiting for an interruption.

"Yes?" Phoebe answered. Andrew smiled, relieved.

"Why are you so eager to get a divorce?" He asked. Phoebe thought for a second, before replying.

"He lied to me." She simply said.

"He lied to you?" Andrew replied.

"That's what I said." Phoebe threw back.

"Hardy the cause to annihilate your marriage." He said.

"What if I told you that he lied to me about trying to kill me, and my sisters. As well as taking over all that is evil whilst becoming the source of all that evil?" Phoebe asked, while ignoring the flabbergasted look Cole gave her.

"I would tell you to stop playing with me. Miss."

"Mrs!" Both Phoebe and Cole yelled.

"Mrs Halliwell. It seems that you are intent on wasting both our time. But we have no choice but to sit here come to some sort of peace about the reason you are filing for a divorce. Now we will wait, till you put forward a reasonable reason, and stop wasting valued time." Andrew said. Cole grinned. Phoebe sighed. It was going to be a long hour.
